Multidimensional Regulation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Potassium Channels [PDF]
Cells, 2021 Mitochondria play a fundamental role in the energetics of cardiac cells. Moreover, mitochondria are involved in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury by opening the mitochondrial permeability transition pore which is the major cause of cell death.
